Meaningful Love Quote

I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.

Of course in this world no two people are exactly the same, and will have the same opinions about what love may be or mean to them. It is important not to force the person you love into believing your views on love, but instead to just let them love you for who you are. When seeking a general view on love I realize that I view love as it was explained to me in the bible since I was young.

1st Corinthians 13: 4-8 tells in a few choice words of what God feels love is, as explained by the Apostle Paul:

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails.

This deciphered basically says a few of love's requirements. Love requires patience, kindness, loyalty, forgetting past fights, not being jealous of someone else's love, not trying to make someone else jealous of your love, not disrespecting anyone, and a disregard for man's inherently selfish ways. It also requires that we use a lot of forgetfulness in regards to past tribulations, and shouldn't be used for evil. Love requires that you protect one another, trust one another, believe in one another, and hold fast to one another. With all of these requirements fulfilled, this love will not fail!

It takes a lot more courage to love someone than it does to be loved. Choosing to love means that we are ultimately willing to face the fact that we will have to give a person our trust, and our whole hearts. Very rarely will we go through life giving someone access to the deepest and most private parts of ourselves and not be disappointed by them eventually.

Understanding is much deeper than knowledge. There are many who know you, but very few who understand you.

In true love every moment can be a moment of discovery. When we love someone we must further our knowledge of this person as much as possible in order to gain the best understanding of this person as possible. As we gain more and more understanding about the person we love, we are able to gauge their reactions to things before they come past, we are able to talk to them in a manner that will produce the most results in times of despair, and we are able to love them to the fullest extent that love will allow.

When a woman is in a mess, she needs no words, no questions, and no explanations. She needs nothing, but a hug.

The physical love and affection we share sometimes can speak way more than a thousand words. When we show our loved ones affection we are showing them a multitude of things. We are showing them how much we care for them, and love them, and that we will protect them. We are also showing them that we will be there for them in times where they will need us the most, and at times that matter the most. Showing affection isn't just limited to holding someone.

Of all the people in the world you are special to me, I love you and miss you.

Sometimes we meet someone that is just special to us, and we never want him or her to leave our sides. Just the smell, the smile, the way someone talks, or the way that they walk can weigh heavily on our mind. When we start thinking about nothing other than that person and our nights become nights with barely any sleep, because we are tossing and turning in bed all night wishing they were in bed with us, we start to realize how much we really care about this person.

If you want something you've never had you have to do something you've never done.

If you are one of many of us in the world, and haven't found or ever been in what you may consider true love, do not worry because you are not alone. Sometimes when we are searching for a love that we have never had we have to try new things in order to find it. Though a lot of people may be against them, Internet dating sites, usually sites for serious interests have been statistically shown to produce high amounts of relationships and even marriages.
